Hi Neil;
Apologies, in editing the reply, the first URL you provided ended up
as part of my reply rather than part of the quote from your reply...
Thanks for the info regarding obtaining a monolithic html (or pdf)
gunucash manual/tutorial...
I would like to have a printout of both that I can take with me
(and/or give to somebody else) at a time when I don't have access to my
computer and/or the web.
I will try what you (and others) have suggested.
Thanks,
Ken
